But I also noticed the app ran a little too slow for than expected, especially while launching the app the splash screen stays on for a good 8-10 seconds. Either way, try it out for yourself. Or if you are an Android lover and looking for an aternate solution – You can try an HVD app. Which enables you to run complete Microsoft Windows 7, Office 2010 and yes Skype too..

I have not tested TringMe but we tested Skype mobile and desktop version and Skype mobile does not sound as good as some of the new generations mobile apps – will try out TringMe
